City Slicker Farms Careers in Oakland, CA

City Slicker Farms was founded by local West Oakland residents to increase food self-sufficiency by creating sustainable, high-yield urban farms and backyard gardens. City Slicker Farms empowers West Oakland community members to meet the basic need for healthy food for themselves and their families by creating sustainable, high-yield urban farms and backyard gardens. These spaces provide healthy, affordable food and improve the environment. We seek to serve all West Oakland residents, prioritizing people who have least access to healthy food. Our farms and gardens demonstrate the viability of a local food-production system, serve as community spaces, empower children and adults who want to learn about the connections between ecology, farming and the urban environment, and give West Oakland residents tools for self-reliance.
